Contained within the Paria Wilderness of the Vermilion Cliffs National Monument in Arizona, Coyote Buttes offers a superb backcountry experience by limiting visitors through a permit and lottery system. The amazing shapes, colors and structure of this place are beyond compare and are a photographer's dream.
